zboot

Hello,

If I were to zboot my dev instance would it be possible to revert it to where it was before the zboot? I am finding all kinds of things that are broken within my instance post implementation and I would rather just start fresh and make changes as I need to rather than back track trying to fix things. We are not using this company wide yet and hardly have any data in the instance so I don't see it being a big deal.

Thoughts?

Thanks

A zboot basically restores the instance back to the same state as if you were to provision a brand new instance. Typically you would just clone from a prod instance down to the test/dev instances. If you zboot it would overwrite any work you've done in the instance so far.

Thank you for the info.

Hello Brad,

 

Planning to zBoot Dev Sub production instance and then clone from NPROD that would copy all customization back, we may need to reconfigure SSO and integrations, what other checks would be required in this scenario.
